Nonoptimal component placement, but short processing paths, due to long-distance projections in neural systems.
It has been suggested that neural systems across several scales of organization show optimal component placement, in which any spatial rearrangement of the components would lead to an increase of total wiring. Using extensive connectivity datasets for diverse neural networks combined with spatial co...
